A 50-50 blend of Grenache and Mourvèdre, Santa Duc's 2021 Gigondas Les Hautes Garrigues is a terrific wine, starting with its complex scents of garrigue and crushed stone, then moving through the ripe fruit notes of purple raspberries, black cherries and plums and into the rich, creamy-textured palate. This medium to full-bodied effort is densely concentrated, with a long, gently tannic finish.

Tannins make this nicely textured version tight, with notes of spices, pomegranate and wild cherry, offering plenty of floral charm. Shows the firm, taut profile of the vintage, but with real pedigree and good stuffing. Grenache and Mourvèdre. Drink now through 2032.

Lastly, the 2021 Gigondas Les Hautes Garrigues is the flagship release and comes from older vines around the estate, on the lower plateau. Based on equal parts Grenache and Mourvèdre that was not destemmed and was raised in Stockinger foudres and 20% in terracotta, it has lots of wild strawberry, peppery garrigue, and leather notes to go with a juicy, lively, vibrant style on the palate. It's balanced and has the vintage’s fresher, focused style, fine tannins, and outstanding length. It's going to have 10-12 years of prime drinking and should clearly be an outstanding wine.

The Estate

Established in 1874 in Gigondas, Domaine Santa Duc has been a family-run estate for six generations. Under the stewardship of Yves Gras since 1985, the domaine gained international recognition for its powerful yet elegant wines. Yves introduced biodynamic practices and expanded the estate's holdings into Châteauneuf-du-Pape. His son, Benjamin Gras, took over in 2016, continuing the family's commitment to producing wines that reflect the unique terroirs of the southern Rhône Valley.
